About Me

I love to draw and color, mostly with Copic markers, and that's what my first blog "Mostly Markers" is about. As I found myself creating more greeting cards, I added my second blog "Mostly Markers - Cards."

Operation: Quiet Comfort

Starting in early 2016, most of my cards are now made for Operation: Quiet Comfort. As explained on their web site, "Operation Quiet Comfort exists solely for the purpose of honoring and comforting America’s military men and women who become sick and injured while serving in harm’s way. We also provide support to those who care for them. We collect, package and ship supplies for U.S. Military men and women receiving care at medical facilities abroad." The packages also include cards with messages of support and encouragement ... "thinking of you, patriotic, thank you, cheerful cards." I'm happy to have the opportunity to support our troops in this way.

From 2010 to mid-2015, most of my cards were made for ...

Because so many of our deployed troops have returned home to their families and communities, Operation Write Home is no longer accepting cards.

Disclosure

I'm not affiliated with any store or product, and I don't receive any free or specially discounted items. When I mention something on my blog, it's because I personally use it with good results.

to learn more about Copic markers

For Copic marker information and lots of really good tutorials, I encourage you to visit I Like Markers, Marianne Walker's blog. Start at her earliest post (2008) for basic info and work forward from there.

About My Cards and My Blog

I'm mostly not a stamper, so for my card images, I often do my own line drawing, then color it with markers. To use it multiple times, I scan it before coloring, then computer-print it. For more on my drawing process, see "How I Draw," and also "Anybody Can Draw."

I use Copic markers (I prefer "original" and also have some of the "sketch" type), Copic multiliner pens, and the Copic airbrush (airbrushing with my markers). See "About My Tools and Materials" for my Copic colors and other tools, materials, supplies and sources. Techniques and materials may also be noted in the blog post.

I will post a few times a month, whenever I have a new card to share. For cards before 2012, the date on the post is the approximate date of the card, not always the posting date. Reference posts like "About My Labels" are filed together as 1973, but are much newer.
